new home construction kitchen layout help please!!
Comments (9)For the overall here[it's a social floor plan-casual] I'd do a U kitchen-sink wall is the middle of the U. Reason is that people migrating in from deck and from family and dining area can use the right arm of the U as a peninsula with stools. Great spot for seating. You'd still be able to have 8 feet width inside the U it appears. Place fridge on lower wall backing up to closets...sink and range inside U-sink about where it is,maybe center the windowscape and range on wall that backs up to corridor over to the left. The island as you have it isn't desirable to me. the range on the left wall means at the peninsula you can do something more visually appealing with pendant lights/back side with panels or whatever to work with some stools and also have just a little separation from the cook's part of kitchen. this will be appreciated I think especially if the dining zone is the only one you are planning. Activities at the range with lots of counter around it will be a little more removed from the middle extremely open part of kitchen where you are suggesting it. You could plumb a small 2nd sink down on lower wall with fridge-perks to that as well.....stylish little zone with added pendant light carrying the theme from peninsula....See MorePlease save me from Honey Oak.

Comments (38)I was told the overhang is 12". I'd like 15' but then we start getting into the living room. We are going to instal laminate flooring throughout the entire top floor to make things flow nicely. I'm ok with laminate in the kitchen although I know people have opinions about that choice :). I love the sliding table idea but that also impinges on the walking area between the island and living room....See MoreReview final kitchen layout. New construction
Comments (0)We are in the final drafting stages of designing the kitchen for our new home and would like to ensure that it is well laid out and functional. some of you from the building home forum will easily recognize ARG's plan as I had previously posted it there. we are soon to be retired couple and I am the primary cook. We entertain family and friends and are very casual, The kitchen is a gathering place. The kitchen is 15' w x 10' long. 3 appliances include 36" fridge, dishwasher, 30" range, single bowl sink (not sure of size) breakfast bar to accommodate 4 people and perhaps a prep sink which wall should the fridge go? (Longer 15' or shorter 10' wall ) Any and all suggestions are welcome i have included house and kitchen plan thank you all so much (:...See MoreKitchen gurus, please review new construction kitchen layout
Comments (33)OK here's another suggestion without changing out the front windows. I do love that large window and I think it will help with light into the kitchen. I extended the foyer wall and moved the stove to that wall. I moved the opening from the hallway up a bit and added the fridge there with about 3" of room on the end so the fridge door opens. The sink is in the same place it was. Didn't move it. Moved the dishwasher to between the sink and the fridge. Shortened the island. It's now 6' long and will seat 3 comfortably. Moved the prep sink over a bit so you can put things on the end of the island before washing. So now you have two excellent spaces for prepping food. Or if it were me, I'd probably ditch the prep sink on the island and leave the island "bare" and instead get a large prep sink like the Kohler Prolific. It's about 45" long and if you put two faucets on it, 2 people can work at it at the same time. BTW: You can also get a dining table that is wider than 36"....See MoreTodd
